Stable crypto-assets for payments: What is missing in current token standards?
Journal of Payments Strategy & Systems,

(2020)
Abstract
This paper explores the taxonomies of stable crypto-assets and discusses the standards associated with Ethereum tokens, including how these compare with certain features of the ISO 20022 industry standard. A brief exploration of simple selected credit transfer features shows that ERC standards are sufficiently flexible to be adapted to ISO 20022 requirements.
